XR300 could not set up vpn in openvpn
setup the dns and vpn then download the zip from <For Smart Phone>
unzip the the file (4 files in it)
take the client3.ovpn and email to my iphone
and open it in openvpn
then the app error : "Failed to parse profile: ca.crt, client.crt, client.key"
is there any step i did it wrong?
or just the router does not support.......

- Netduma-FraserNetDuma PartnerI just tried it on my router and with the app and it worked fine. Did you extract the .ovpn file out of the zip folder before you sent it to your phone? Are you using the OpenVPN Connect app or another one?

I extract the .opvn from the zip (using winrar)
but what about the other file? should i do anything about them?
more info about the system
